I'm new to actionscript, I want to have a single animation and two sliders. slider1 will advance and rewind the movieclip,we'll call it "scrubbing", while slider2 will change the highest frame of the mc acheivable by the "scrub" slider1. Therefore if slider2 is at one end slider1 will not advance the mc at all, while if slider2 is maxed out then slider1 will "scrub" the whole movie.
View 1 Repliesis it possible to make the duration of a movieclip equal the duration of the preloader, i mean is it possible to make something like, the time the preloader needs to reach the 100% = the duration of the movieclip? i'm using AS 3.0 and flash CS4 just in case it helps here is my code for the loader:
Code:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
function loadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
var percentLoaded:Number = event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal;

View 1 RepliesTrying to add a duration slider to a play and stop controller similar to what you see when viewing a .wav or .aiff file in a browser. I would like the viewer to be able to go backward or forward during a speech. Final delivery is in Dreamweaver as a .swf.

but it doesn't shows handsymbol.Is there any other way to change the slider into buttonMode?
I have been checking out the following tutorial:on how to adjust the volume with a slider.it's great!what I'd like to do is use that same slider to adjust the alphaof a movie clip.is that possible?or maybe adjust the alpha of a symbol.what i'm trying to do is create "mood lighting"where the user can move a slider and lighten or darken an interiorspace, by adjusting the alpha of a dark square on top of the scene.
View 3 RepliesI have a controller that works well (play, pause, restart, and a scrubbing playhead), now I just need to display the time remaining vs. the total time of an external swf, preferably in MM:SS format (Ex: 02:36/03:51). I'm getting better with my ActionScripting all the time, but the more I learn, the more I realize just how little I actually know. Anyways, my files are setup as follows: HTML w/ JavaScript that hides the main swf (giving it time to load)Main swf revealed when button is clicked on HTML pageExternal swf pulled into an empty MC (mcContent)Instance of controller in the main swf targets mcContentDynamic text field labelled "txtTimer" is inside of controller waiting for the right script to display time remaining/total timeSo, anybody know where I could find some script to get this final touch added to my project? Either time elapsed or time remaining would be cool. I've gotten a lot of really good help/tips here in the past and am hoping to keep that going.
View 1 RepliesI found this tutorial: [URL]. It works great but I wanted to add a little more to it. Currently it works with only one item displayed at a time. If I want to display more than one item, let say 2, I make the mask the size of the 2 items. The back button works fine because the X position is still the the same. However the next button does not account for the size of the mask and works like it did before.

View 3 RepliesI am really new to actionscript3 but this is what I want to do. I want to use the slider in component to spawn or copy a movieclip to the stage in any random placement. For example if I slide my slider across 1 interval and that interval is assigned like X(times) 10 the movie clip will spawn or copy itself and place it self randomly 10 times on the stage.

View 1 RepliesI'm having a little trouble with finding anything about making a slider to control a embedded Movie Clip... I think it may be because a slider is actually a movie clip object which is why nothing is coming up when i search the keywords i want....
I'm looking for a tutorial on how to create a slider to control the frames/time of a embedded movie clip using as3. Essentially I'm looking to recreate a thing like on the YouTube video player, but it wont need to have anything to do with buffering, just a way of pausing/playing a movie clip from a particular frame or time position.

I have a nested MC that functions as a continuous slider; when you mouse right of center it slides one way and when you mouse left of center it slides the opposite direction. Right at center it stops. The problem I have is that I'm using this as a menu at the bottom of a .swf and there are other places to mouse on the page, which means that this menu is constantly in motion even when it's not being used. I want it to stop when it isn't being used, only because it's an MC I can't use the onMouseOut command to stop the clip. I tried making a button that targets the clip and stops it when you roll over the button but it doesn't work.
Here's the script I'm currently using:
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
xcenter = 467.5;
speed = 1/25;
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var distance = _root._xmouse-xcenter;

I have created a slider to control the width and height of a movieclip. However the numbers currently go the opposite way I would like them to go. currently if the slider is at the top that counts as 0 because of the y coordinate and the bottom counts as 200. what type of equation would I need to flip this so if the slider is at the top it's 200 and at the bottom it is 0?

What code would I add to have a seperate movieclip play frame by frame based on where my slider is. Ex: My slider is on the far left, seperate movieclip is at end of its timeline. If I move the slider quickly back to the beginning the movieclip plays backwards quickly to its beginning and stops.

I have a menu bar as a movie clip and another movie clip acting as a slider. I want to on pressing a button on the Menu bar movie clip get the slider to slide across with easing. however I don't want the easing to be infinite so can't use a this._x*=.9 or some decimal < 1. Loop function only acts on the single frame so it too quick to see.
View 1 RepliesWhat I have is a map that you can click on points and it will zoom in, you can also click on a "plus/minus" buttons to zoom in and out (I even have the mouse wheel zooming in and out). The client wanted me to add a "zoom slider bar" to it so you know you could move it up and down to scale it. Everything is working except the slider, I can't seem to get it to work with the position of the slider. All of the zoom functionality is there but the slider is killing me.
I am putting up the fla file since there is a lot of code in there and I didn't want to put it all in the forum. if you look in the fla in frame ten on line 726 you can find the function that is supposed to handle the zooming when you move the slider. Up on line 74 you can find the slider onPress and onRelease functions, but those I believe should be fine.
I have two movieclips in the centre of my stage. One is on top of the other and fade's between them using left/right buttons.I want to change this so that they slide in like a jQuery slider does. I don't want to change the initial position of the movieclips (on top of each other) just change the fade effect to a slide in.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a slider which will eventually control the alpha levels of a movieclip of mine but I'm having trouble controlling the parameters in the startDrag() function. Here is the code:
[Code]...
This seems to work ok, however, the problem is encountered when I go to drag the MC...for some unknown reason it ventures off its slider bar and goes to the left. I will attach the .fla.
I am trying to create a basic timeline, similar to the timeline we all use in flash (see attached).
I have a playhead slider, which when dragged, just drags within its startDrag() limits.
I also have horizontal window scroller which also when dragged, just drags within its startDrag() limits.
I am trying to work out how to get the horizontal window scroller to scroll when the playhead slider hits the left or right edge. I am using hittest for this collision.
I have the playHeadSlider scrolling along the top. When playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing I want mcContents to then move.
It kind of works.. mcContents moves when the playHeadSlider is in collision with the hittestThing.. but it just moves rather than 'drags' across. I have it set up so that mcContents is twice the width (approx) of mcScrollWindow.
I need to somehow update what I have so that if the playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing on the right, mcContents only moves to the right and if playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing2 on the left, mcContents only moves to the left.

I have a movie clip with a graphic. I want to copy the clip and change its colour. How do I create a copy of the movie clip change its properties without the other movieclip's properties changing as well. I have it now. I was copying the instance not the graphics themselves.
View 1 RepliesBasically, I want to change the colour of a component in my fla file that is called 'EDL Arrow' using Actionscript
'EDL Arrow' is a Movieclip and is part of another movileclip called 'EDLClipDisplay' - which exports to my actionscript file: 'Export: CIS.FLVPlayer.EDLClipDisplay'
How can I change the colour of the component 'EDL Arrow' from the actionscript file 'EDLClipDisplay'
I understand how to do colorTransforms but I just don't understand how to connect this component 'EDL Arrow' with my Actionscript file.
I am new to Flash and Actionscript and am currently working on some code pulled from another post to try and learn from what others are doing or have done. I have created a star movieclip and am attempting to move it randomly accross the stage in a relatively slow speed. When I run it, it moves randomly but way too fast. I have spent the last 6 hours playing with the code, researching help files and also looking up other discussions but nothing seems to be helping. Here is what I have so far. My apologies if the code looks like a hack. This is being done in CS4 if that matters at all. If anyone could shed some more light on how to handle controlling the speed or rate of random movement with some insight
